Newport Gwent Dragons celebrate their Sevens win

Harri Keddie's late try earned Newport Gwent Dragons a dramatic 17-14 win over Wasps in the Premiership Sevens final at The Stoop, Twickenham.

The Welsh region won the Welsh round earlier this month.

And they made history by becoming the first Welsh team to take the cross-border finals title with Elliot Frewen named player of the tournament.

Dragons beat Sale 26-10 and 2014 winners Gloucester to reach the final.

Scarlets fell 33-12 in the semi-finals to Wasps, having beaten Newcastle 31-26 in their opening game.
